ABSTRACT:
A two-pin liquid sample dispensing system is provided. The two-pin dispensing system comprises a pair of separately movable pins for holding a droplet of liquid therebetween. Each pin includes a tip spaced predetermined distance from the other pin to define a sample acquisition region. The pins acquire and hold a droplet of the liquid sample in the sample acquisition region formed in the space between the tips and apply the droplet to a selected sample handing system. The distance between the tips is variable to accommodate different liquid samples having varying physical properties and to vary the volume of the acquired droplet.
